Stuff Michael Meeks is doing
|
|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
Novell which is an amazing company, and also
Dell who in days of yore provided me with a
free laptop for Gnome development / conferences.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.

Up early, off to Ridgeons to look ineffectually for things
knotting treatment eg. really not a very baby-proof store. On to
collect new flush for toilet - it has been leaking all night -
presumably muck from soldering blocked the fragile whatnots inside.
-
Lunch; J. set off on a multi-hour quest for exactly the
right tiles: plain gloss white with a simple black edging -
incredibly these are rather hard to get hold of - most tiles these
days being huge, rectangular and oddly textured.
-
Limbo'd under the toilet replacing the flush - seems to
work, no obvious flooding / collapsed ceilings. Noticed the builders
had insulated the back of some of the new walling in the loft -
covered that with hard-board. Cut pipe work in the crawl-space, and
extracted unused pipe & header tanks.
-
J. returned flushed with almost-victory and a boot full of
tiles. Tea, put babes to bed; on with the painting, and poly-filling.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Novell, The
Lithuanian Gov't or Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's also important to
realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences,
bio.
or fun.
